The other Greek Problem The Greeks got the marketing right as their language was understood by the educated people. The Greeks didn't write all those bodies of knowledge to tell us how we should think and run practical life. The Greeks just recorded what was going on in their societies and the lands surrounding them. All stuff that can be good in a Hollywood movie made way into people's minds. People who knew the language of Greece, Greek, read them and spread the Greek philosophies I was talking with an Arab in my office just because the coffee boy made a joke Told me if Ali Baba had found your Samsung Notes 4, it would be gone by now. (I forgot it in the WC.) In our talking with the old Saudi about stories from the Arab world that we know. old me: people confuse Moslem with Arabs. Ali Baba and the 40 thieves, Aladim and so on. For him there is the Arabs and the Moslems and we westerners mix them up. Arabs have a body of knowledge like the Greeks that we western drew little from. And he continued. And then westerners think the Greeks got everything right. I thought: this guy is proving my theory, that Greeks punch above their weight, right.
